A timeline of fall 2014 movies

With requisite snarky remarks

Some of these movies may not arrive in Sacramento on the dates listed below. Get over it.

The Skeleton Twins

September 12

Bill Hader and Kristin Wiig in the quintessential anti-

Saturday Night Live spinoff. Wayne’s World on dabs?

The Equalizer

September 26

Denzel Washington and his Training Day director do what U.S. soccer couldn’t: beat hella ass.

The Judge

October 10

Hollywood's two Roberts (Downey Jr. and Duvall) bitch at each other for two hours. Then, hugs.

Kill the Messenger

October 10

Jeremy Renner as journalist Gary Webb, who briefly worked at SN&R. (Nothing snarky to say, sorry.)

St. Vincent

October 24

Let's imagine that your neighbor is Dr. Peter Venkman …

Interstellar

November 7

2001: A Space Odyssey meets The Notebook. Called it!

Rosewater

November 7

Jon Stewart ups his big-screen game post-Half Baked cameos with this directorial debut.

Dumb and Dumber To

November 14

Predicting jokes as dead as a parakeet.

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 1

November 21

Milking every last dollar out of Hunger Games fans by splitting the third book into two films? For shame!

Horrible Bosses 2

November 26

Apparently the original earned enough moolah from TV to make a sequel, which proves that zoning out and watching crap on cable isn't a victimless crime.

Penguins of Madagascar

November 26

Animated penguin spies: Another argument for birth control.

Inherent Vice

December 12

Paul Thomas Anderson adapts Thomas Pynchon or riffs on The Big Lebowski. Either way, I’ll abide.

Exodus: Gods and Kings

December 12

Ridley Scott gets biblical? Christian Bale as Moses? Hard to keep the faith.

The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies

December 17

Another three-hour nap in your future.

Annie

December 19

I'd take a hard knock on my head over seeing this musical remake with Jamie Foxx.

Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb

December 19

I hear the secret of the tomb is to lock this movie's print in there and see what happens.

The Interview

December 25

Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg's This is the End follow-up, whereupon they go Errol Morris on Kim Jong-Un. Dennis Rodman cameo?

Into the Woods

December 25

Fairy tale mash-up that at one point had musician Girl Talk attached as director. (OK, not really.)

Big Eyes

December 25

Tim Burton gets serious (sans Johnny Depp) about artist Margaret Keane's annoying doe-eyed paintings. Merry Christmas!

Unbroken

December 25

Angelina Jolie directs the true story of Forrest Gump? Reagan revolutionites reloading!
